torture

I think torture was done to punish people who committed a crime, did something wrong in the king's presence, stole and other crimes. Torture was done by using torture devices, such as iron Madden, axes, the pear, and others. The iron Madden was a coffin basically with spikes and it would pierce your body and make you bleed to death.The axes were used to behead people and or cut them in half. The pear would be placed in your mouth and opened up cracking your jaw bone.

I think capital and corporal punishment do work. I think this because if you punish some one they will defiantly learn from the pain or mistakes they had made so that they never feel that pain again, or act up again. Also i think it works too because if you torture somebody, they will be scared and won't try acting the way that they did. They would be disciplined and scared to act the way they did. It could make some people more violent and angry, but not all people. Most people would be in pain and scared. That's what i think about this topic.
